I recently bought an 04 spare rim that will replace one of my rims that is badly curbed. Can i just mount the sensor from the current wheel to the new wheel? I have yet to mount and balance it but will I have problems regarding TPMS? I have an 06 TL. Any insight on this wil be greatly appreciated.

 

Yes, you can transfer the TPMS sensor over to the new wheel.

 

oh thats good to know, i thought an 04 tl rim would give me trouble.

thanks for the info man

 

I would get a reseal kit to replace the rubber seals.

 

Just curious, sure they'll fit? The '06 wheel is a different PN from the '04/'05 and will possibly have a larger area around the valve opening for the TPMS valve locks.

 

^not sure either, but there is a guy selling 04 TL wheel with TPMS mounted...

 

so wait im a bit confused, the 04 wheel i will be mounting will accept the tpms system and the the computer will be able to read and display the psi of the wheel correct?

 

It's not the wheel. It's the design of the valve stem area on wheels. I don't know if OEM TPMS fits 04 TL wheels. I just saw the pic (04 TL wheel with TPMS) on BM. I would check with that seller to confirm.

It's fine to transfer TPMS from your 06 TL wheel.

 

Thank you for clearing this up ! Hopefully I will not encounter any problems tomorrow when I mount and balance the 04 wheel.

 

Same situation here sort of. I got new wheels for the spring and I'm wondering if I can just take my TPMS sensors and slap them on the new wheels.

 

Sorry somewhat offtopic: Do you need these still if you are just slapping new tires onto OEM wheels?

 

No. Just make certain the installer doesn't damage the sensors.

 

I dont think it will work. two reasons, the 04 doesn't display the actual pressure, it is only a warning that a tire is low. Second reason is that the 06 wheel has an indent where the wheel sensor is and the 04 doesn't.

 

I think you are right. See this link....

'04/'05 had no TPMS system, so nothing will be displayed.
